DESCRIPTION:(from National Geographic Channel's press release, February 2013) The Boy Scouts live and breathe their motto: Prepared. For Life.(R) They are strong, resourceful and self-reliant. Honest, helpful and brave. They are downright tough. Would you be able to reach into a bag of snakes, shimmy across a rope stretched over river rapids, canoe across a lake without a paddle and rescue an injured hiker? From Emmy award-winning Original Productions (Deadliest Catch, Ice Road Truckers) comes National Geographic Channel's new series Are You Tougher Than a Boy Scout? Premiering Monday, March 4, at 8 PM ET/PT, and hosted by ex-Army Ranger Charles Ingram, adult "civilians" battle it out with scrappy Scouts in a series of challenges - all based on the Boy Scouts' 100-year-old handbook - designed to test their physical and mental stamina to determine if these adults have what it takes to earn their own "merit badge."
